Numbers 23:4-10 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

4. God met Balaam, and he said to him, “I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered up a bull and a ram on every altar.”

5. The Lord put a word in Balaam’s mouth, and said, “Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak.”

6. He returned to him, and behold, he was standing by his burnt offering, he, and all the princes of Moab.

7. He took up his parable, and said,“From Aram has Balak brought me,the king of Moab from the mountains of the East.Come, curse Jacob for me.Come, defy Israel.

8. How shall I curse whom God has not cursed?How shall I defy whom the Lord has not defied?

9. For from the top of the rocks I see him.From the hills I see him.Behold, it is a people that dwells alone,and shall not be listed amongst the nations.

10. Who can count the dust of Jacob,or count the fourth part of Israel?Let me die the death of the righteous!Let my last end be like his!”
